Well depending on who you talk to, Brook did nothing but hold Porter the whole fight. I happen to think he edged Porter and landed some nice shots that shook Porter a few times, but he did hold a lot.
He did stifle the action, it was ugly, but he completely made Porter ineffective, a win is a win is a win. And he's had other fights where he has shown his skillset and resolve.
Spence is much stronger than porter, he man handled him and toyed with him round in round out. when they're sparring the massive talent gap in too apparent. it they fought there's zero chance porter could make it to round 6, MISMATCH of the highest order. This forums ability to gauge talent is disturbingly pathetic, like almost complete opposite of reality
The irony of your last sentence. We can't based Spence's 'talent' based on your imagination man. In the fights we've seen of both, Brook has more variety, better footwork, better power and thanks to GGG, we know he can take a punch and show heart.
Spence and Porter have never fought, You're basing your opinion on sparring sessions I would have to assume, and if that's the case, it's been proven time and time again that sparring sessions "never" tell the whole story in terms of who'd win in an actual contest. I can go on and on about sparring sessions where one person was dominant and when they actually fought it was a different story.
Brook by UD. Spence will miss and will pay. Spence going to eat choco brownies. Gonna get that right hand and those uppercuts. Spence getting worked.
I do think he should have been at least warned for all the holding he was doing (maybe he was and I don't recall). One thing's for sure- with this referee and the home cookin', ain't no chance of any warning for holding.
spence by ko rd. 9. brook will not be able to stop the inside fighting like he did vs porter. right hook over a lazy jab will end it.
Who's right the forum or Vegas? this should be a good post about the fight I have seen Brook in tougher fights than Spence so I'm inclined to pick Brooks but I will like the American to win.
Someone save all the polls. I don't want to hear YOU PICKED THE FAVORITE DOE. BROOK WAS DRAINED DOE. When Spence looks far more drained than Brook. I'll post links if someone doubts this.
